Your Mission

As a Software Engineer, you will collaborate on the design, development, testing, documentation, and operational support of features and mid-sized projects, as well as help mentor new hires. We are looking for proactive, collaborative, and adaptive engineers who can work independently and manage priorities with minimal supervision.

    • Responsible for collaborating on the execution of plans and designs end to end: estimating, prototyping, implementing, testing, maintaining, debugging, and supporting high-quality software in production.
    • Break down complex tasks, set milestones, and implement new features from scratch while minimizing technical debt, always keeping client needs in mind.
    • Adhere to quality standards throughout the software development lifecycle, and take ownership of solutions.

  • Adapt:
    • Learn new tools and technologies, and develop an understanding of existing systems.
    • Proactively seek to learn about the company, products, processes, and culture.
  • Design/Review:
    • Participate in design, with guidance. Understand how work fits in with related projects or components and identify problems with requirements and fix them, helping the team course-correct when necessary.
    • Work with more senior engineers to ensure our systems are built for availability, reliability, resilience, scalability, performance, and security from the ground up.
    • Actively engage in thoughtful and respectful code review, and work to clearly and publicly document tradeoffs.

Your Expertise

  • Technical Experience: 3+ years of industry experience, with a desire to learn and work with Elixir/Go/Rust.
  • Technical Ownership: You have a passion for writing concise, performant, and extensible code to create reliable and scalable products. You write tests, and have experience with continuous integration and deployment tools.
  • Communication: You value collaboration, both for yourself and your peers, and are thoughtful in your communication when sharing ideas or opinions.
  • Collaboration: You're able to build relationships within your team and operate semi-autonomously, unblocking yourself and peers when needed. Always seeks out feedback on technical designs, solutions, and code.
  • Initiative and focus on outcomes: You are looking at the big picture, you observe and improve your team’s work. You are interested in the team’s success as a whole, not just personal success.
  • Adaptive: Ability and motivation to quickly learn new languages, technologies and tools. Pragmatic bias toward outcomes, and technical decisions that solve real business problems.
